August 19, 1980, A Saudi Arabian Airlines Lockheed
L-1011
experienced a
fire in the cargo compartment about 5 minutes after takeoff. The Lockheed
L-1011 returned to the airport and landed. It is alleged however, because
the captain failed to prepare the cabin crew for immediate evacuation
upon landing and his failure in not making a maximum stop landing upon landing
the L-1011, everyone on board died due to smoke and fire.
